Cisco announces Cisco Spatial Meetings for Apple Vision Pro

Today, Cisco is extending its “Distance Zero” vision by integrating Apple Vision Pro in its latest Cisco Spatial Meetings. This new technology promises to revolutionize virtual collaboration by providing an experience as close as possible to in-person interaction, making remote meetings more immersive, engaging, and productive.

Cisco’s “Distance Zero” initiative aims to eliminate the sense of physical separation in today’s hybrid work environments. Through advanced AI-powered devices and Webex software, Cisco has already made significant strides toward this goal, aimed at making remote collaboration feel more natural.

Apple Vision Pro’s spatial computing capabilities aim to create an immersive meeting environment where people can interact with people and objects as though they were in the same room. By combining Vision Pro with Cisco’s advanced AI-driven hardware and software, remote teams can now experience new levels of realism in their interactions with 3D visuals

Cisco Spatial Meetings leverages the Apple Vision Pro to turn ordinary conference rooms into spatial video studios. Cisco has already equipped 25,000 Room Bar Pro devices worldwide, making them spatial-video-ready with just a software update and the Vision Pro headset.

The potential applications for industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, and design are pretty incredible. You can image a design team in different countries examining a product prototype with life-like details, seeing intricate items in full 3D, or a doctor walking through a surgery rehearsal in an immersive environment.

NVIDIA chipsets power Cisco’s technology

Cisco’s devices are at the heart of this breakthrough collaboration. Their advanced hardware—featuring NVIDIA chipsets and dual-lens cameras—delivers an unmatched level of precision, capturing every nuance in a 3D environment. This creates spatial meetings that are more than just video conferences; they are immersive experiences that allow for collaboration on an entirely new level.

By leveraging spatial computing, teams can communicate, innovate, and make decisions faster. For industries like retail, spatial meetings can transform product reviews, while educational institutions can offer more immersive learning experiences for remote students. Cisco’s Spatial Meetings offer the flexibility and ease that modern teams need to collaborate seamlessly from any location.

Wrap up

With its continued focus on making technology intuitive and simple to deploy, Cisco is committed to innovating with Apple Vision Pro. As the headset technology evolves, it’ll be exciting to see how the work environment adapts as well
